For my grandson
This is the card I made for my grandson's birthday. The stars were cut with an old Sizzix die and white embossed with a Simon Stamp Says You Matter cling background stamp. Then I brushed DOX inks over the stars. The little black stars are from a set that comes in a little plastic bottle. The label is gone so I don't know where they came from. The happy birthday is a My Favorite Things Die-Namics. The last step was to sponge around the edges. I saw a card like this on Pinterest and now I can't find it so if it is your design, please let me know so I can give you credit. I have to start keeping track of that. I will order a stamp set because I saw a card on Pinterest I liked and when it comes, I can't find the card again! I need a plan!

Beautiful card for your grandson, Brenda. I love how you've embossed the stars. xx
great card Brenda, Same thing happens to me with cards I see on line:)
Those stars are beautifully stamped for a fun card for your grandson. Have you tried creating an inspirational board on Pinterest to pin your favorites to? That might work for you so you can find the cards you like later on down the road.
Love the blue shading to show off those stunning stars. I find that true, if you don't save the Pinterest image immediately, you can never go back and retrieve it. I have a "cards" category to save inspiration photos on Pinterest. I was saving so many cards, I finally had to make subcategories for different seasons and occasions.
A perfect guy card, Brenda! I have folders on my Bookmark Bar with subfolders for stamp companies. It's cumbersome so sometimes I have to go through and delete some. Good thing is, I have the blogsite it came from and it's easy to copy and past into a post.
Great design and colors for a guy card!
Wonderful masculine birthday card. Your grandson must have loved it!
Your grandson will definitely feel like a star when he receives this cool card, Brenda! I love the way you added the You Matter stamp sediments, too, which will make him smile even wider! Hugs, Darnell

Wonderful card for your grandson's birthday, Brenda! LOVE those stars with the white embossed words and soft yellow sponged over top. So beautiful with the blue sponging around the edges. xx
Fabulous card for your grandson and loving those stars x. Yes I am with you about not 'storing' cards I have seen and loved x.
A fun card for your Grandson Brenda! I love the stars and the inking and the wording on the stars. A gr4eat masculine card! I hear you on sometimes not being able to find a card on Pinterest. I usually "pin" mine, but there are plenty of times I don't either. I guess there is really no clean good answer, except to pin the card on Pinterest. I keep mine pin's in categories, like birthdays, wedding/anniversary, fall, etc...Maybe that would help you. Hugs, Brenda
Perfect guy card! I have the same trouble finding something I saw--too much inspiration out there--haha!
